Halloweenie

Halloween wasn't all shit. I got dressed up as a stewardess from yester-year (the 60's). I had wanted to get those latex wounds and blood and stuff and look like a stewardess from yester-year that was in a plane crash you know an un-dead one. But that shit cost way too much money and as we all know I don't have it so I just went cute and very un-halloween-like. It was okay though because when we got home I wasn't in the mood to spend hours in the bathroom washing off all the crap from my face, as it was I didn't want to even wash my face I was so tired but being the pretty lady that I am I did.

So the girls (mustache wearing pirates) and I headed down to the castro which is nothing like it used to be to meet up with my gay boyfriend Kevin and his roommate Diana and whomever else happened to be there. I ran into Damian too but only shouted a quick hello through the door of the bar. You know those gays, always at the bar!

Can I just say I was so bored. Not that I wasn't in good company but there just wasn't anything to do! Halloween in the Castro used to be fun. You came down, got your drink on right in the street and everything, walking around meeting people while bands played, music blasting from clubs and people dancing in the street. Just reckless abandon and then 2002 came and stupid gang thugs ruined it all. First off I don't understand why thugs would want to come hang out with a bunch of homos. Not saying everyone in the Castro at halloween is a homo but come on! This is the Castro and this is San Francisco and there are lots of homos! Second why would you want to come down not even dressed up still wearing your baggy pants and your oversized grandma looking night shirts and hoodies that are five times too large for you and mingle amonst the people dressed up. I guess if I weren't dressed up and 99% of everyone else was I'd feel a little out of place. Last but not least why would you and your rival gang thugs whatever decide to do battle right then and there? There are tons of police out and the crowd is so thick you probably won't get too far. Why not take your vilence out where no one is at. Logic is missing from it all. If all the cops were patroling the Castro for assholes like you, why wouldn't you just keep your shit on the DL back in the ghetto?

Whatever. 2002 was the last year I enjoyed Halloween in the Castro and even then it was shitty because it was way overcrowded and all those stabbings and fights happened. Now it's just like a lot of people wandering the streets paying way too much to get into the bars to buy way overpriced drinks. I had myself a drink at home and got stoned before leaving the house. It was nice while it lasted.

I had wanted to go to Cafe Du Nord for a goth-like good time at Dark Sparkles special Halloween shin-dig but it all comes down to me being broke. Sucks the big one.
